This gonna push Leavitt hand quicker wonder if the staff is okay taking first one that bites or they’ll play it aiming towards Simpson and Leavitt as fallback

I feel like they are hedging it already. Make Simpson say no, then play the hand to Leavitt. The Leavitt deal should have already been done from what the insiders were saying.

He was a 4 start on other recruiting sites, but I still don’t understand why everybody here think that just because some freshman start nowadays that all freshman sophomores are supposed to be ready because that’s not the freaking case

I mean both NCG starters are six year guys. Nothing wrong with a slow burn imo. I’m not saying he can’t or won’t be a dud. But I’d far more concerned if he was outplaying EW in practice.

Money won’t be mentioned if anyone else gets Leavitt. It’s only mentioned when Miami gets players. If he goes somewhere else it’s just because they are better. Somehow we’re the only team that pays for players in the NIL era. According to the media.

That's a good narrative to own these days. The players like it.

I love the “He’s not worth x amount, I’d stop at x amount” in a world where there’s no salary cap.

There’s a market cap no matter what. Us and LSU obviously will pay higher than 99% of teams. At some point, a team will draw the line. I’d imagine it’s us first. Lane has more pressure than Mario rn.

To be fair, this is like saying your opinion of paying whatever is more correct. People should be allowed equal opinions.

Sure people are entitled to their opinion. But there’s no cap, no baseline, nothing and people just throw out “He’s not worth $x”. Like, based on what? It’s a free market economy, he’s worth whatever people will pay him.

Unless someone knows what our overall NIL budget looks like, saying someone isn’t worth a specific dollar amount is just arbitrary nonsense.

Why is the consensus that is Leavitt goes elsewhere there will be zero other options and staff will give up?

These portal threads really bring out the worst takes of CIS.

I hope Mario trusts his judgement and will drop this guy if he thinks he’s a red flag regardless of talent. I have an image of this guy and I’m personally hoping we drop his ***. But I trust Mario

I mean other than Leavitt, Raiola, and Longstreet

the best in the portal is Beau Pribula. At very least he's quite mobile. Hasn't been a horrible passer in his limited snaps.
Maybe you could still get a DJ Lagway or Deuce Knight.

Think like SJSU's Walker Eget is in portal still.

I agree with your argument, something is worth what someone is willing to pay. I sell sports cards and that market shifts every sale.

Me personally, I would hope we wouldnt spend that much on a qb when we paid our current qb 4 million and he's getting it done with 7 yard passes.
